Performance Objectives

• Launch four seasonal campaigns annually that generate measurable trial, with 70%+ of participating restaurants hitting lift targets within 30 days.

• Grow digital and loyalty engagement 25% by optimizing offers, content, and channel mix across social, email, app, and in-store.
• Deliver promotional ROI of 4:1 or better while staying within approved marketing budget and vendor guidelines.
• Establish a simple measurement cadence (weekly dashboards, monthly business reviews) so operators and leadership see what’s working in real time.

You will have a defined annual marketing budget, access to POS and loyalty data, and a small internal team plus field marketing support. Headquarters is in Torrance, CA; travel to restaurants and events is expected.

Essential Qualifications
